Looks like the LEO LEADER is in Rhode Island today!

For those of you who got their cars off this boat when it was in Baltimore or Jacksonville, where do you live and how many days did it take to get to the dealership from the port?

Just bought my STI straight out of the vendor. Limited edition with Turbo boost gauge, 4 door, silver. 2013 model.

Awesome car, I had a 2011 WRX prior to that one!

I tried to buy original subaru parts like the catback exhaust and they said it is not available for 2013 models, which feels stupid since they are exactly the same as 2011-2012 models. Anyone bought SPT parts yet for the 2013?

That's because the dealers in California are hording all of the WRX/STI's... Seriously, I have no idea how Subaru allocates their vehicles... I assume for every 1 WRX/STI that the other 49 states gets, California gets 1 too.

On the topic of waiting for next year models. What make you think you won't have to wait as long? Lol I'm pretty sure there will be a wait period anyway for WRX/STi as they have became high demand cars with low production. As many already said 1st gen of redesigns usually not the best in term of reliability. I saw the concepts of the newer WRX/STi and I am not sure if that what they'll look like but they're very ugly to me lol.

Something tells me that the Japanese do not celebrate our raping and pilaging of the Native Amercians....

I mean our "discovery" of a new country, and team work with the Natives...lol

Is that even a question? I can't figure out why anyone would put steelies on a car if they could get something that looked a lot better for only $11 more.

On another note, stopped by me dealer yesterday to make sure that I'd be able to pick up my WRX before I head out of town for Thanksgiving and my sales guy told me my car will be arriving at the dealer today and ready to pick up anytime on Saturday! I couldn't focus on anything else after that for the rest of the day.

Happy Thanksgiving to me!!

Actually I was talking about the poster prior to me, and was noting that he had "yet another december" ETA meaning that now I count 26 individuals including myself across the east coast that have december ETA's.

That's 26 WRX and STi's that MUST be on one of two ships either the one docking 12/9 or the one after.
I doubt they will get 3 ships in the month of december, the next one will be early january so if they stick to the "month of december" ETA's on these guys, that ship will be one loaded down RoRo

Yeah there are a ton out here in the bay area. No 5-door STi's though. With the long waits, if I had to do it all over again I may have just bought the black one I test drove. I really like the PBP though.

So I'm finally fessed up on why my order is still on Hold since I ordered it on 10/13 and emailed subaru about it. A nice rep emailed me back and apologized for the issue and said she will do some research on the order and said it could take a bit of time as she will have to "reach out" for information. Lets see if she can get to me with a good news!!!

I could be wrong, but I'm much closer to the West Coast than the East (Colorado) so I would think mine would be through a West Coast port?

I'm another of those vague end of November, but probably beginning of December ETAs just to be safe.

I should also apologize about my previous post towards you. Quite immature of me to go on that rant. I'm on the same boat and it's killing me. I'm making the waiting time easier by jts buying parts lol

Just checking in. Prepare for rant...

SNE finally looks to be catching up. Balise Subaru (Rhode Island) and Atlantic Subaru (MA) are each showing an STI as "In transit" on their sites.

Seems several SNE orders have recieved VINs or have a matching car "in transit" on their dealers site. (STI specific)

Can the SNE guys who are seeing "the light at the end of the tunnel" PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE be a bit more proactive and try to obtain your allocation number! The Dealer will have it listed on your order.

We (I) need to see exactly what SNE allocation group is receiving VINs...

I'm in the 1114 allocation, according to my dealer the (NOV) allocation, but I have no ETA, or vin...

On a side note: PLEASE FILL OUT YOUR INFO! (Location, car(s), ect...) Or at least post with a little more information. I'm so sick of reading posts that have no information other then your obviously a new member who registered a day ago, just picked up your car, and didn't say where you got, what you paid, or if its was a 4d, 5d, wrx, or STI...



Your not helping...
